d20 Games

I put together some tweaks to the basic occupations listed in d20 Modern , partly to address some bottlenecks that became apparent in character creation.


Super-Soldier
In the wars that opened the Fusion Age, the complexity of equipment and operations, and even more, the inhuman intensity and brutality of the new conflicts, saw the rise of a new kind of warrior who could compete with automated fighting machines on their own terms: selected before their birth, engineered for performance, raised to know no other life than battle.

The Super-Soldier occupation leads most directly to the Soldier or Helix Warrior advanced classes, though if such an individual finds the chance and inspiration to live a life in freedom, other careers certainly are possible for them.

Bonus Feat: Select two of the following: Brawl, Combat Martial Arts, Cyber-Taker, Endurance, Oathbound, Armor Proficiency (light), Armor Proficiency (medium), Personal Firearms Proficiency or Advanced Firearms Proficiency.

Free Trader / Space Nomad
Tramp freighter crew, petty merchants, wildcat miners and other wanderers of space might answer to a national shipping service, a corporation, or to no-one but their own captain. Some consider the distinction between a free trader, a smuggler and a pirate thin at the best of times.
